"The book presents to non-Russian readers a theory that has been developed almost entirely in the former Soviet Union. It is clear and hardly suffers at all from the fact that English is not the author's first language....The fact is that the book is well organized and easy to understand." Peter M. Neumann, Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society
